Coughs and stammered were great, any more to look out for? I can't rightly remember. I think I was flagging a bit by then and I was perhaps a tiny bit disappointed there was so little reaction from NH to both of those (it wasn't just that any reaction was edited out, there just wasn't any) that unl...

Ah good run Chris, have enjoyed seeing you over your games, and unlucky to lose in such tight circumstances, but it did make for good viewing :). Look forward to a reappearance in 10 years time when you can achieve octochampdom :) You can come back after 5 years. Zarte did. I think that is dependan...

I remember seeing ORATORY immediately after declaring ROTARY and then seeing GYRATORS just as Colin said Susie had found an 8. Shame I didn't get my ton. That 450 numbers game is cringeworthy to watch back and would have meant 108... Did you catch my S-stammered today and my *coughs* COUGHS yesterd...

1 year to go for me I just came on this thread to write this, didn't realise I already had With it being you, I doubt you're serious anyway, but there's no precedent for letting a CoC contestant back is there? :lol: well I wouldn't say no! But I would be a big hypocrite, because I do think once you...

I'VE FINALLY GOT A GOOD, AND MEANINGFUL RECORD. I'm happier about this than I thought I would be. Well, when the CoC comes around you will have to set your sights on 377, get more than that and you'll have the most points ever (if Conor's 2364 is actually the current highest) so it's not over yet!!

I also took a look at some other notable legends of the game who scored in the 700s and 800s. Here they are in series chronological order:- [S47] Chris W. (875) = Max of 1085 [81%] [S47] Tom H. (850) = Max of 1015 [84%] [S50] Jim B. (756) = Max of 978 [77%] [S50] Chris C. (858) = Max of 1045 [82%] ...

Three and a half months to go to COLIN and number have reached eight for the main event and seven for the hangover... And I had a fairly exciting delivery a couple of days ago. :) Normally at COLIN, my prizes either come from car boot sales or one of the eternal sales they seem to be having at The ...

Personally I think Tracey should've had her word allowed even after saying it wrong then spelling it wrong, at the end of the day its meant to be a fun not-too-serious show, and so the judgement should always just be on what you have written down... Not on how well you can hold your nerves together...

it would be good if the monitors were touchscreen because then to buzz you would have to press a letter of the conundrum as your buzz, but the rule is you can't then change your starting letter, like on apterous

Thanks for all the comments everyone, had the best time at the studios everyone was soooo nice. V happy with how I did, though inevitability some regrets dunno what it was about that 3rd numbers but even James didn't get it and even Dylan, who spectacularly solved that difficult 351 from game 5 in ...

TOURNOIS in round 2. Another strong performance by Stephen there, with the exception of the bad miss in the 1st numbers game. There have been much worse misses, don't see the need to call people out on them, especially in the heats... Besides, isn't making mistakes the entire foundation for gamesho...

RIP, was lovely meeting her and her husband at the finals. Really emphasises how good a player she was, as I remember her telling me she was having treatment a few days after the finals, yet still managed to play so well??? I hope the service goes/went well and is/was a nice send-off for her. Condol...

Many thanks, Ben, and Ben's mum and everyone else involved. Once again, you've pulled off the best co-event ever. Also once again, Ben, you suggested that you were unsure whether you were going to do a Hangover event next year. In my view it's very much part of COLIN weekend now, and a very enjoyab...

Something is telling me that you want to be told yes, as it would be a cool title... so in this situation, yeah, you're the worst contestant ever But if you're genuinely worried then I'd say no, Gen Baker looks to be in worse shape than you as the other people around the top (well bottom) of the lea...

In new 15 round games, Dylan Taylor scored most consistently, his highest score being 129 and the lowest 113. In old 15 round games, it was Tom Hargreaves , who had a highest score of 111 and a lowest score of 98. In 9 round games, it was Sharon Bridge , with 63 and 51. Interesting, but nines could...

And so my Countdown run comes to an end... But with 9 wins and 999 points to my name, I really can't complain. :P Thanks for the comments, it's been great fun and a brilliant experience. Though I don't know about Champions of Champions - obviously it would be AHH-MAAAAAAY-ZINGGGGG :o :o - but there ...

Can I just add, as a tiny note, that Robbo pretty much singlehandedly operates the Wiki recaps, and he doesn't get any thanks for it, usually. Robbo may be glad to know that recappers - YOU CAN HELP . When finishing your recap, click on the "generate wiki version" (or something of a similar irk, ca...

I've just flicked through the people I follow, and Dylan isn't on your list. (But maybe that's intentional.) Good idea by the way. On both of those notes - with the C4C/Apterous Twitter list, no longer will gems like this get lost in the general disarray that is your main Twitter feed. https://twit...

I enjoy ochre paint Me too Ok so perhaps my post was quite prejudgey, I wasn't a fully fledged forumite when Tricia's run aired so please don't take it personally. Other than the (I presume) meteor-faced cavedweller Jordan Leckonby there isn't really a person that I dislike on here, however the gen...
